    Occupy Iowa City: Student Assembly
    Occupiers and community members will meet on Saturday at 2pm to discuss how we can give voice to student concerns and remind those in power that this is Our University.
    We will talk about what actions we want to take against the university and potentially make plans to strike on November 17th in solidarity with students in New York City. The meeting is open to everyone, including professors and university staff, and especially anyone who has not yet been involved in Occupy Iowa City.
